The memorial to all who served at R.A.F. Sutton Bridge in Lincolnshire, photographed during a trip to Norfolk in September. The propeller blade is from a Hawker Hurricane.
The structure in the background is Cross Keys Bridge, a swing bridge spanning the River Nene. From 1897 until 1965 the bridge carried both the A17 road and the Midland & Great Northern Joint Railway line from Spalding to King’s Lynn. Now it just carries the A17.
